Chapter 219 Keep Me Company

Elliot’s heart tightened when he heard Hayley’s words. So, she really was kicked out of her house, huh?

Is that why she was abroad for five years.

But he believed the reason Anastasia conceived Jared was that the child’s adorableness could heal her

pain. Jared was like a cure for Anastasia, liberating her from that horrific experience. This little one, on

the other hand, needed love and care, and it would be his duty from now on.

Just then, the dishes were served. Hayley was looking forward to dinner when she made the orders, but

now she felt as though she was chewing wax. Who’d have thought Elliot invited her to dinner only to

learn about Anastasia’s past? At the end of the day, all he had in mind was Anastasia.

“Elliot, Anastasia’s a sweet girl. If it weren’t for that encounter, she would be living a happy life.” Hayley

continued to put on her saint façade in front of Elliot.

Elliot, however, was still deep in his thoughts. After hearing Hayley’s words, he nodded in agreement, for

the rest of Anastasia’s life had everything to do with him now. He would give her the happily ever after

she deserved.

Then, Hayley thought of something, and she shyly asked, “Say, Elliot, has Anastasia ever asked you

about us?”

However, Elliot’s gaze at her was clear and collected. “Hayley, what happened between us was a

mistake. I’ve hurt you unconsciously that night, and I’ll make it up to you in my own way.”

“I don’t blame you, Elliot. Really. Maybe I’ve suffered for five years, but after knowing you, those

sufferings became sweet experiences.” Hayley tried her best to confess her love for him.

Too bad Elliot didn’t feel the same for her. “It’s best that you don’t dwell on that night. It’ll do nothing but

harm to you, after all.”

“No, I’m happy as long as it’s you.” Hayley shook her head like a rattle. She was beyond willing to

experience such happiness again. “Elliot, I… Anytime you want, I’m willing to—”

Just then, Elliot’s phone rang, and she looked exasperatedly at the caller ID, only to find it was

Anastasia.

Immediately, a fire raged beneath her eyes. Oh, how she wanted to kill this b*tch! She swore Anastasia

had deliberately called to meddle at this time.

On the other hand, Elliot hurriedly grabbed his phone and stood up. “Let me take this call.”

“Okay.” Hayley beamed, suppressing her raging fire.

With that, he went to the empty private room next door and answered the call with a gentle voice.

“Hello?”

“Mr. Presgrave, you’ve promised to play with me downstairs. Why haven’t you come?!” The little one’s

voice traveled from the other end of the line.

“Can you wait for me, Jared? I’ll go over once I’m done with dinner.”

“Really? You’ll still come over, Mr. Presgrave?”

“I will. I never go back on my words,” Elliot promised. He adored the child immensely, even if they weren’t

related by blood.

“Okay. I’ll be waiting for you!”

“Alright, I’ll get there soon,” Elliot promised again.

After hanging up, he checked the time and returned to the private room. When he saw that Hayley had

barely eaten, he couldn’t help asking, “Hayley, are you done eating?”

“Are you leaving?” She couldn’t help panicking. Must he go as soon as Anastasia called?

“Yeah, I still have something I have to get to first. I’ll have Daniel send you home.”

“But Elliot… I… I hope you can finish this dinner with me.” Hayley wished he could stay, but when he

looked over with his suit jacket in his hand under the light, she lost all courage and bit her lip aggrievedly.

“Y-You go ahead then! I’ll be fine.”

“I’m sorry, Hayley. I’ll treat you to another meal,” Elliot apologized, standing on ceremony, before striding

out.

Now that he was gone, Hayley could throw her façade away and bear her bitter, resentful face.

Anastasia, of all people, it has to be Anastasia! That b*tch shrouded her like a nightmare she couldn’t

drive away no matter how.

With that, she picked up her phone and called Daniel. “Daniel, come up here and keep me company.”
